'Drop Dead Diva' stars Brooke Elliott (Broadway's "Taboo") as a shallow wannabe model who dies in a sudden accident only to find her soul resurfacing in the body of a brilliant, plus-size and recently deceased attorney, Jane. Comedian Margaret Cho (TV's "All American Girl") also stars in the series which has featured guest appearances by Rosie O'Donnell (The Rosie O'Donnell Show), Paula Abdul (TV's "American Idol"), Tim Gunn (TV's "Project Runway"), Liza Minnelli (Cabaret, Arthur), ShaRon Lawrence (TV's "Monk"), Kathy Najimy (TV's "King of the Hill"), Delta Burke (TV's "Designing Women") and Nia Vardalos (My Big Fat Greek Wedding).

Kathy Griffin moved from her native Chicago and joined the famed Los Angeles Groundlings Theatre where she was a student and later a teacher. Kathy built up her resume doing guest spots on "ER", "X-files" and "Seinfeld" where she developed the recurring character 'Sally Weaver'. Kathy went on to co-star alongside Brook Shields in "Suddenly Susan" which ran for four years on NBC. In 2005 Kathy entered the world of reality TV with her double Emmy winning show "Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D List" for Bravo.
